Bioinformatics tools
Learn how to use the tools at the EBI to find out more
about your nucleotide or protein sequences.
You will be guided through a series of exercises using sample fragments
of sequence. To gain more information about these sequences, you will
use a variety of tools to compare the sequences to databases and
analyse them.
Please choose a
tutorial: - Nucleotide Analysis
Topics include; check
for vector contamination, BLAST similarity search,
FASTA
similarity search, whole genome search, pairwise
alignment, ClustalW2 multiple sequence
alignment and translation of DNA/RNA into
protein.
- Protein and Proteomic Analysis
Topics include; BLAST
similarity search, FASTA similarity search,
whole
genome search, MPsrch sequence comparison,
ScanPS
sequence comparison, pairwise alignment, ClustalW2
multiple sequence alignment and a
proteomics example.
- Protein Function
Topics include; motif searching using
InterProScan, FingerPRINTScan and PPSearch.
- Protein
Structure
Topics
include; introduction to nucleotide
structures, introduction to protein
structures and bioinformatics for protein
structure prediction.
- Genome Browsing
Topics include; information on the
two main genome browsers available Ensembl in the UK and UCSC Genome
Bioinformatics in the USA.
- Database Browsing
Topics include; summary of the
interfaces available for searching mulitple databases and also a
detailed explanation of the Sequence Retrieval System (SRS) provided by
the EBI.
- EBI Web Services
Topics include: What are SOAP Web
Services, where to get these from; how to use them and how to develop
applications with these.
